CALGARY, Nov. 3 /CNW/ - WestJet today announced the launch of new, seasonal non-stop service between Calgary and Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo, Mexico. The inaugural flight departs Calgary International Airport at 9:00 a.m. MT today.

"WestJet guests now have six Mexican destinations to choose from this winter," said Hugh Dunleavy, WestJet Executive Vice-President of Strategy and Planning. "A really popular choice for Canadian travellers, Ixtapa offers all the modern amenities of a full-service resort town, whereas the rest of the Zihuatanejo region is packed full of the traditions and flavours of authentic Mexico!"

WestJet will fly between Calgary and Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo twice per week from now until May 1, 2010.

One-way fares, available in both directions on non-stop flights only, are available from $149, plus applicable taxes and fees.

WestJet flies non-stop from Calgary to some of the most beautiful sun destinations anywhere, including Cancun, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Nassau, and Orlando. As part of its 2009-2010 winter schedule,
WestJet is also adding service from Toronto to Freeport, Cozumel, Miami, St. Maarten, Cayo Coco, Holguin, Varadero, and Turks and Caicos, in addition to non-stop service from Vancouver to Kauai, Hawaii.

WestJet adds 11 new US & international destinations

WestJet unveils the largest single-season expansion in company’s history

WestJet today unveiled its largest-ever seasonal non-stop flight schedule, featuring a record eight new international destinations and three additional U.S. destinations for the winter of 2009-2010. By late fall 2009, WestJet will operate service to 66 cities in more than 10 countries, as compared to 51 cities in eight countries one year ago.

Beginning in late fall, WestJet and WestJet Vacations will launch seasonal non-stop service to Varadero, Holguin and Cayo Coco, Cuba; Ixtapa and Cozumel, Mexico; St. Martin; Providenciales, Turks and Caicos; Freeport, Bahamas; Lihue (Kauai), Hawaii; Miami, Florida; and Atlantic City, New Jersey.

'This is another first for WestJet,' said Chris Avery, WestJet’s Vice-President, Revenue and Planning. 'We have never announced as many destinations at one time, which demonstrates that we continue to deliver on our strategic plan by expanding our network and providing our world-class guest experience each and every day. We remain confident that in spite of the current economic conditions, WestJet’s unsurpassed value and our status as Canada’s preferred airline will see old friends and new guests alike flying with us this winter.'

'This schedule represents significant expansion on both the transborder (U.S.) and international fronts,' said Chris Avery. 'Both are strategic decisions as we continue to aggressively pursue and earn profitable market share in these critical areas. WestJet is well on its way to becoming the market leader in many of the most popular sun destinations in the U.S., Mexico and the Caribbean.'

WestJet Vacations offers customized vacation packages to all of WestJet’s southern destinations. And for a limited time only, guests who book a vacation package with WestJet Vacations before September 30, 2009, for travel between November 2, 2009, and May 15, 2010, will receive a $400 travel credit per room booked.
